If that were all there is to Covid, the excess mortality in Q2 should have been compensated by a reduction in Q3. While we do see such a reduction for Q3 in the numbers for Stockholm (which I cited in a sibling comment), it's too small to balance the tally.

It's not all there is to covid, but I think it's still worth observing. I mentioned in another comment that the total number of deaths in Sweden in 2020 up to November 1 is 3000 more than average the same period during 2015-2019. That's about half of the total number of official covid deaths.
